Welcome to TAOTAT’s Mystic Tea and Brooms!
Where Body, Mind and Spirit meet over a ‘cuppa’ tea.
What is TAOTAT’s Mystic Tea & Brooms?
TAOTAT’s Mystic Tea & Brooms is what happens when you combine two things that you love and are passionate about, and make them your business. This business is built on passion, functionality, creativity and well-being. Passion for quality, tasty, healthy & organic teas/tisanes; I will not comprise on quality organic ingredients in all the blends I make and or bring in. Creativity with functionality; brooms can be the most effective and beautiful tools you can use to clean and clear a home, workshop or sacred space. Why shouldn’t they be beautiful too? Well-being is what happens when you do what you love, and are able to share it with others who appreciate beauty in a skillfully crafted broom, and a good cuppa tea.
Did you land here looking for a reading with me?
After 30+ years of doing readings professionally, in June 2025 I made the decision to retire. After helping people along their paths for such a long time, and through several difficult historical world events, it’s time that I focus in a different direction. My focus moving forward will be more on my art, my delicious teas & tisanes, my beautiful brooms, and what brings me peace, and joy.
Thank you for all the years of trusting me to aid you as you walked your journeys forward in life. It was an honour and I feel blessed for being able to be there for folks when they needed some guidance.
Will I still teach the Art of Tasseomancy? Yes, absolutely. I have been teaching the Tea Leaf Reading for 26 years now, and I want the Art to continue to grow and be passed forward to folks. I am also continuing to build and show the Museum of Tasseomancy, as it’s an ongoing fascination into the history of this beautiful divinatory method.
Thank you for visiting, and for your interest in me and TAOTAT’s Mystic Tea & Brooms.
Hamilton broom-maker is weaving an ancient craft
An article about me and my craft in Hamilton City Magazine…!
The first thing you notice when you walk into Amy Lou Taylor’s home is the peace and quiet. A hush falls over everything, except for the pot of chai tea bubbling merrily on the stove….Read more
Introducing private broom making classes!
I am happy to accommodate private broom making classes in my home studio. Each session will be approximately 3 hours in duration.
Introducing the private Tasseomancy Novice class!
Tea is steeped in superstition and reading fortunes with it hearkens back to days of the old divinatory art forms of the Shamans; interpreting symbols, patterns and formations made by random objects.
Some New Items…
Brooms and Whisks

Tea
Countless lives have been enriched by it – and more than a few sacrificed for it.
As one of a handful of plants that have shaped the world, tea has been endlessly adapted and reinvented across cultures and centuries. Fresh, yet timeless, tea is both the flavour of the moment, and the taste of the past. Join me as I take my uniquely different tea party style and my fun interactive programs about tea and tea leaf reading to the public. In doing so we will embark on an adventure about tea and its amazing historical and healthful story.
All our Tea Accessories and other items are chosen with care for their uniqueness and their usefulness.
Our Teas and Tisanes are premium quality and use organic ingredients as much as possible, also where available our teas are single origin, direct from the farmer/producer. All our custom blends are made by Amy in small batches to ensure the best quality and freshness for our products. All teas/tisanes are infused with a healthy smattering of Positive Magick, Gratitude, Pure Joy and a lot of Good Vibes!
Won’t you join me for a delightful, tea-lightful, insightful cuppa tea?
